Here's another photo of my card:

To make my card I used a Memory Box die called Twirled Heart Border - it's one that I've had for many years!

I created a white card blank from Hobbycraft card and then placed the die along the right hand edge of the front and die cut it.  I kept the hearts from this die cut to one side.  Then I cut the die again from a scrap of red metallic card.

Working on the reverse of the card I put the red die cut and the white hearts back into the main card and attached them with some clear tape.  A bit fiddly but I was pleased with the result!

I finished the card with a stamped sentiment from the 'Wonderful Moments' stamp set from Stampin' Up.
